Yes our 3G iPhones have yellow screens... but is anyone's a bit DIM?

So after hearing about the yellow screens in the new iPhones I decided to compare my 3G 16gb with my dad's 3G 16gb. Both were purchased from the same ATT store and were both week 27s. Have updated to lastest 5a347 firmware on both. It seems my phone's screen is a bit dim when compared to my dad's on full brightness with auto brightness off. Is this a defective LCD? Should I take it back to ATT for a replacement? Will post pics soon. Admittedly it's not THAT much dimmer but its my first iPhone and I would be really bummed out if it wasn't perfect.

Looks like normal variance in manufacturing and possibly different screen vendors. Someone has already run some fairly specific tests in regards to screen color temperature and brightness. Take a look.

lol I'm assuming that was a joke? Anyways, I have switched them around and compared them at different angles. Mine is a little dimmer still.

That was the 1st gen iPhone. If you hold it in front of you and tilt it a bit to the left or right, the brightness changes differently. Last year it caused some inadvertent confusion with the ones on the right appearing brighter than the ones on the left in the pictures for same series LCDs.

From these posts it appears there is more variations this year than last year.
